Obama had budget deficit at about 700 billion.

Trump managed to increase it to over 3 trillions, and he increased it the most during the 4th year of being president.

Apparently, Trump printing 8 trillion dollars in 4 years is bad for economy - who would have known.

This is why we need to oppress MAGA more.

This is shocking that the deficet grew only during the year a global pandemic started sweeping the world. What could this mean?

Thats not true.

Trump increased budget deficit 3x times in 2019, before covid.

But even during covid, he refused to increase taxes on the rich, but increased an already high budget deficit even more.

So yeah, if he is elected in 2024, he will do same again.

1.7 trillion deficit in 2019. 

That is already 3 times more than what it was in 2016.

Trump = King of budget deficit.

Remember that when we had a similar National Debt after WWII, the last smart Republican President raised the top tax rate to 90 percent.
Eisenhower explained it this way: The super rich could avoid the high taxes by investing their money in things that make America stronger. If they wanted to avoid high taxes, he said they could invest in business expansions and higher employee wages. They could give a million or two to tax-exempt non-profits that feed, house and clothe poor people of America, among other things.

It means Trump hopelessly mismanaged the pandemic, causing a million people to die needlessly, and completely wrecking the economy.

People complain about inflation but forget that Trump printed over 3 trillion dollars in his 4th year as president, and in total he printed 8 trillion.

This is the guy who promised in 2016 that if he is elected, he will eliminate the debt. Not only did he not eliminate it, but he increased the deficit more and more each year. 

He went from 700 billion deficit in 2017 to 1 trillion deficit in 2019, and then to over 3 trillion deficit by the end of 2020.

He also left over 6% unemployment, and over 200,000 dead Americans at the end.

All that had to have horrible effects on economy.

Biden managed to fix economy eventually, but it took time.

Long story short:
Trump inherited great economy and managed to fuck it up totally in just 4 years.
Biden inherited horrible economy from Trump and managed to fix it in 4 years, despite Russia invading Ukraine and covid still being a thing.

I thought he stripped away red tape created by democrats to make the FDA approve vaccines faster and saved millions of lives.

Also do you remember when he tried to shut down the border to stop it coming to America and democrats said stopping a pandemic was racist?

I'm not falling for your lies Harry Sisson.


2nd? USA isn't even in the top 10 for deaths per million. It's 15th. @3,099.62
Bulgaria is #2 @5,376.25 deaths per million

Grats on praising Trump again (i guess)

That includes 2020. (says as of, not that year)

Unless you actually think 1 million people died in that one year, omg you just accidentally praised Trump again. STAHP!

The year 2020 was under Trump.

You linked year 2022, which is under Biden.

So you cannot include year 2022 if we are talking about year 2020 alone. I guess they dont teach statistics in Russia.


In year 2020, under Trump, US had 8th highest death rate in the world from covid, doing much worse than almost any other country on Earth. This is despite having some of the most advanced health services in the world.

This is because it had Trump who said: "You dont need to wear masks. I dont!".

stop lying. The stats say AS OF...and when you look at total deaths it says 1 million. If you want to say that chart is 2022 alone, I'll take my victory lap saying Biden killed 1 million people in 2022 and call it a day

 8th highest death rate

So your cherry picked stat also proves you lied about usa being #2.
With usa ranking 24th on Infections to fatalities.
grats on the self-own?

I dont know how numbers can confuse you so much, but I will say it very slowly this time.

We are talking about death rate from covid under Trump, which is year 2020.

You provided the link which includes the sum of 2020 and 2021 and 2022.

So your link has nothing to do with death rate from covid under Trump.

If you cant understand something this simple, then there might not be any hope left.

8th position isnt so good either, but if you really wanna say that USA was in terms of covid worse than 95% of other countries in the world during Trump, sure, I guess I can agree with that.

Well, then you shouldnt lie. Make sure your sources are from the year you are talking about. You cant really be trying to take rates from 3 years period and say that they are all from 2020. Really, Putin will not be happy.

And honestly, I don't give a crap about your stat making Trump look good with ranking 24th for infections to fatality rates.
Death rates are what counts, but I guess you are not aware of priorities in life.

We know now in 2024 that the lockdowns were bullshit and so were the vaccines when they said it would prevent infections. Trump was as bad as all the other lying politicians doing the same bad things. 2024 we know ventilators probably killed many thousands unnecessarily, but you can't blame all the politicians for doing the same bad things if you want to remain in your chosen cult.

Well as usual you don’t have your facts straight 

Trump offered to buy all the vaccines produced some of the drug companies (Pfizer didn’t participate) even if they turned out to be ineffective. That way they could begin producing the vaccines while they were being tested, thus speeding up the process. It had nothing to do with the Democrats and the FDA gave the plan emergency authorization.
